Ecuador's national team will have at least 6,500 fans at the Estadio Ciudad de México for the Round of 16 match against Mexico. Ecuador's Federation has already received the tickets from FIFA, which has generated great excitement among Ecuadorian fans.
What happened with the tickets?
The tickets for Mexico's first qualifying match in their third World Cup at home sold out months ago, which is why Ecuadorian fans began complaining on social media about the lack of tickets for the match.
How many fans will they have?
FIFA has already given the Ecuadorian Federation 8 percent of the tickets regarding the capacity of the state that corresponds to each association playing in this World Cup, which means they have at least 6,500 seats for the match on Tuesday.
Background
This also happened with South Korea in Guadalajara and the Czech Republic in Mexico City, which had some groups of fans in the midst of the green tide in the group stage matches.
